If she can agitate the water probably yeah, your tangs will deplete the oxygen pretty quick. Ask her to get a container and pick up the water and splash it back in every 30 min or so for a few times. Temperature wise not sure its pretty warm in LA so not sure where you live.

Only thing really to worry about would be temp since it's cold outside.

HFT is having a sale on their small generator. It's going for 90.00! good to have as a back up and will run for 5 hours on a gallon of gas.
